| Alter Bridge – All Ends Well Lyrics | 5 years ago |
|
This song came to me on Spotify when a playlist had overrun and automatically started playing tracks in a similar genre. Ironically however, the lyrics were what I needed to hear. All ends well! |

| Metallica – Shoot Me Again Lyrics | 5 years ago |
| From the SKOM DVD, it was a track expressing the anger at the Napster litigation and how pointless it became. Any victory being almost a Pyrrhic victory. | |
| George Michael – Praying For Time Lyrics | 7 years ago |
|
These don't appear to be the correct lyrics: "These are the days of the open hand They will not be the last Look around now These are the days of the beggars and the choosers This is the year of the hungry man Whose place is in the past Hand in hand with ignorance And legitimate excuses The rich declare themselves poor And most of us are not sure If we have too much But we'll take our chances Because god's stopped keeping score I guess somewhere along the way He must have let us alt out to play Turned his back and all god's children Crept out the back door And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate Hanging on to hope When there is no hope to speak of And the wounded skies above say it's much too late Well maybe we should all be praying for time These are the days of the empty hand Oh you hold on to what you can And charity is a coat you wear twice a year This is the year of the guilty man Your television takes a stand And you find that what was over there is over here So you scream from behind your door Say "what's mine is mine and not yours" I may have too much but i'll take my chances Because god's stopped keeping score And you cling to the things they sold you Did you cover your eyes when they told you That he can't come back Beacuse he has no children to come back for It's hard to love there's so much to hate Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of And the wounded skies above say it's much too late So maybe we should all be praying for time |

| Metallica – The Unforgiven II Lyrics | 8 years ago |
| I could be way off base but I do wonder whether this is yet another track about JH mother and her death. There seems to be a spiritual guilt wrapped around the lyrics because her beliefs failed her and also his guilt through grief surrounding her death | |
| Levellers – Maid Of The River Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I think the lyric is 'Cried more than most' - one of the best songs regarding the goddess of our land - old mother nature! | |
| Depeche Mode – Get Right With Me Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
For me the most poignant part of this track is "Life is such a short thing That I cannot comprehend But if this life were a bought thing There are ways I know we'd mend" It's alluding to the fact that most of attach a monetry value to 'things' and if we did the same regarding our lives we would probably value it much more and do things differently. Great track |

| Eminem – Love The Way You Lie (feat. Rihanna) Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| This to me is about being in a destructive relationship with both parties being fully content to let the cycles of abuse continue. I think that many take Eminem's lyrics too seriously and judge them too quickly...for me this is brilliant poetry, written from the heart and a place of 'knowing'. Takes balls to bust your own chops! | |
| Within Temptation – Mother Earth Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| There are clear pagan overtones in this track as there are in many others - the symbols of the cross and pentagram are not exclusively Christian or Pagan. They have been used by both and still are. The lyrics regardless are for me a powerful celebration of Mother Earth in all her power, her dark as well as her light. | |
| Within Temptation – Aquarius Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| I would be very surprised if WT did not have Neo Pagan influences especially as one of their albums is called Mother Earth and furthermore their lyrics seem to lean towards a nature based spirituality. | |
| Alanis Morissette – Joining You Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
My favourite part is below - amazing song written by a lyrical Goddess. 'I remember vividly a day years ago, we were camping you knew more that you thought you should know you said "I don't want ever to be brainwashed" and you were minboggling, you were intense, you were unconfortable in your own skin, you were thirsty but most you were beatiful' |

| Alanis Morissette – Thank U Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| For me its about gratitude, and being thankful even for the experiences which arent pleasurable or positive, primarily because all experience has something to add to our evolution and spiritual development. | |
| Ultravox – Man Of Two Worlds Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| I agree with the last post, it obviously tells of a spiritual experience and seems to some extent to have pagan leanings. I confess to having similar experiences at other sacred sites and its for this reason that this song is my favourite from the album. | |
| Depeche Mode – A Question Of Lust Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| To me its about relationships; the need to be independent but not too independent ('the stupid mistake of letting go'); its about the roles two play within a relationship and the willingness to both commit and or surrender emotionally ('I need to drink more than you seem to think, before I am anyone's'); for me its a tender song that encompasses all parts of most relationships. | |
| Depeche Mode – John The Revelator Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
~you know who are skilled with showing you what the Bible teaches are those Jehovah's witnesses....they really have researched a lot....I might join them one day...or not....watever~ I was brought up as one and can honestly say that they are not skilled researchers at all; most of their doctrine is unsound and their references to other scholars are intellectually and academically dishonest. On a much more broader level they destroy families through their shunning of ex members and have siginificant issues with people obtaining a higher education; furthermore and more sinister than the above, their policies have allowed child abuse within their organisation to reach a pandemic proportion. www.jehovahs-witness.com Personally the song is about losing faith and religious intolerance. |

| Depeche Mode – Walking In My Shoes Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| An excellent song which resonates with me on several levels; In my view its a two fingered salute to those that would judge the writers lifestyle and or choices made, and an invitation to walk in his shoes before choosing to condemn. | |
| Depeche Mode – Stripped Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| To me this is somewhat about sex but instead of it being about just gratification, its about wanting to know every aspect of his partner on a much deeper level. | |
| Depeche Mode – Only When I Lose Myself Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
Yeah this has a lot of meaning for me too....loving someone who is out of bounds is a nightmare...been there and done that. 'There’s a thousand reasons Why I shouldn't spent my time with you For every reason not to be here I can think of two Keep me hanging on Feeling nothing’s wrong Inside your heaven' |

| Depeche Mode – In Your Room Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| Do you not think it couldve been about his heroin addition? | |
| Depeche Mode – Blasphemous Rumours Lyrics | 19 years ago |
| I think God has got a sick sense of humour, whoever he or she is...if we are all supposed to be gods children WTF does he or she allow so much suffering...how does any creator or parent justify this point? The song is beautifully written with irony and completely pertinent...will always be my best DM track. | |
